No, the hotels don’t offer airport shuttles, so we recommend a rideshare like Uber or Lyft. John Glenn Columbus International Airport (CMH) is only about 8 miles from the hotels, roughly a 15-minute drive. A one-way UberX runs around $30, though rates vary by time of day and demand.

Yes, you can use cash at all three hotels.
